FAQs

What does 'refurbished' mean for these AirPods?

This refurbished unit has been previously used and restored to full working order. While the AirPods themselves are fully functional, the charging case may show cosmetic signs of wear such as stains, scratches, and scuffs. There are also specific limitations with the Find My app functionality, as detailed in the product description.

How long do the AirPods 3 last on a single charge?

The AirPods 3 provide up to 6 hours of listening time on a single charge. With the Lightning Charging Case, you can get multiple additional charges, extending the total listening time significantly.

Can I track these AirPods using the Find My app?

Yes, but with limitations specific to this refurbished model. The AirPods may appear 'mismatched' in the Find My app. Location tracking is only available when the AirPods are in use and requires the 'Find My network' toggle to be off. They will not be visible on other accounts, so do not attempt to link them to a new Apple ID for full tracking.

Are the AirPods 3 waterproof?

The AirPods 3 are sweat and water resistant for non-water sports and exercise, but they are not waterproof. They are not intended for use during water sports like swimming or showering. Avoid prolonged exposure to water.

How do I clean my AirPods and the charging case?

Wipe your AirPods and the inside of the charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For the AirPods, you can slightly dampen the cloth with water if needed, but ensure they are completely dry before placing them back in the case. For the case, use a dry cloth due to potential existing cosmetic wear.

What kind of charger do I need for the case?

The included charging case is a Lightning Charging Case. You will need a standard Lightning to USB cable (often supplied with Apple iPhones/iPads) to charge the case.

Can I use these AirPods with an Android phone?

Yes, you can connect the AirPods 3 to an Android phone or any Bluetooth-enabled device like standard Bluetooth headphones. However, advanced features such as Personalized Spatial Audio, automatic device switching, and 'Hey Siri' functionality will only work with Apple devices.

Troubleshooting

AirPods not connecting or pairing with a device.

Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Place AirPods in the case, close the lid, then open it. For Apple devices, hold near the device. For others, press the back button on the case until the light flashes white. If still an issue, 'Forget This Device' in Bluetooth settings and re-pair.

Sound quality is poor or distorted.

Check if AirPods are clean; earwax or debris can block sound. Ensure they are securely seated in your ears. Try resetting the AirPods by placing them in the case, closing the lid, and then opening and holding the setup button for about 15 seconds until the status light flashes amber, then white.

Battery draining faster than expected.

Ensure AirPods and case are fully charged. Features like Spatial Audio consume more power. Check for firmware updates for your AirPods via your connected Apple device. If on an Apple device, disable 'Automatic Ear Detection' temporarily to see if it improves.

Find My app shows AirPods as 'mismatched' or has limited tracking.

This is a known characteristic of this refurbished unit. The AirPods may appear mismatched, and location tracking is limited to when the AirPods are actively in use. Ensure the 'Find My network' toggle is off as per product information. They will not be visible on other accounts.

Charging case has stains, scratches, or scuffs.

These are cosmetic imperfections consistent with a refurbished product. They do not affect the functionality of the AirPods or the charging capabilities of the case. Clean gently with a soft cloth to maintain appearance, but these marks are permanent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. For Apple Devices: Open the AirPods case with the AirPods inside, hold it near your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Follow the on-screen prompts to connect.
  2. For Non-Apple Devices: With the AirPods in the case, open the lid. Press and hold the button on the back of the case until the status light flashes white. Then, select "AirPods" from your device's Bluetooth settings.

Care Instructions

  • Cleaning AirPods: Gently wipe the AirPods with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn dirt, dampen the cloth slightly with water. Do not submerge AirPods in water. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them back in the charging case.
  • Cleaning Charging Case: Wipe the case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Due to the refurbished nature, the case may have pre-existing stains, scratches, and scuffs. Avoid using abrasive materials that could worsen these marks.
